About this event

Join us for a delightful ice cream social during the twilight hours, where we'll have the incredible opportunity to interact with the brilliant minds of the University of Tennessee Physics students! 

This special event will revolve around astronomy and space. We invite you to bring your curiosity and questions as we engage in fascinating discussions with the students, gaining insights into the wonders of the night sky. They will also have their telescope on hand for observing celestial marvels up close! 

 Of course, we'll be treating ourselves to delicious ice cream throughout the evening, making this a truly sweet experience under the stars.

Enhance your stargazing comfort by bringing along a quilt or outdoor seating to sit upon while we gaze upon the night sky's breathtaking beauty.

Marble Springs' open green spaces will provide the perfect setting for this memorable night, away from the lights of downtown, ensuring an enchanting stargazing experience.
